Answer:

a.) 10 more doctor visits at $250 each

Explanation:

The first plan has a $25 co-pay for each doctor visit and has an annual deductible of $2,200.

The second plan has no co-pays and has no deductible.

The second plan costs $3,000 more in annual premiums than the first.

John chooses the first plan and has 10 doctor visits at $200 per visit.

So, there will be =
25*10=250 dollars of co pay.

Therefore, the event that will make this plan more expensive than the second plan will be = a.) 10 more doctor visits at $250 each

That will double up the whole amount.
